Johnny Gargano Let Companies Know He Was Taking Time Off For The Birth Of His Child

Johnny Gargano isn't All Elite.

While he was trending on Twitter last week, Gargano didn't appear on AEW Dynamite Beach Break in his hometown of Cleveland. AEW hadn't teased the possibility of a debut whatsoever, though some fans expected it to happen regardless. We're told that Gargano has had contact with some people in AEW, but we haven't heard if there have been formal conversations or negotiations about coming in. Either way, we're told that Johnny Gargano had made it clear to anyone inquiring about his services that as of now he's taking time off to help out with Candice LeRae's pregnancy in any way he can, as their child is due any day.
